Make It Monday- Patriotic Popcorn

After finally getting around to putting away Easter decorations away, I am really looking all the patriotic holidays coming up. Memorial Day is a huge celebration in our town- a parade, fireworks and lots of fun pool parties thanks to the amazing southern California weather. I am just so thankful to live in this incredible country.

So, I just had to pull out my fun party popcorn recipe and whip up something for these events coming up. Patriotic Popcorn is just the thing- colorful, yummy and easy to make. This is a simple variation on Bunny Bait and Leprechaun Lunch and uses the same directions found here except I added red nonpariels, star confetti and red m&m's.

Package it in a cute for for a party like the above picture or in individual containers for gifts to give to family, friends and especially to those serving our country!

I will happily send the tags for free if you

This is so creative! And who doesn't love popcorn with M&Ms? I would love for you to link it up to my What I Learned Wednesday Link Party going on right now! I know my readers would love it too. http://weliketolearnaswego.blogspot.com/2012/05/what-i-learned-wednesday-10.html

We have a good old fashion parade on our small street each year with a grand Marshall, kids on bikes and in wagons, everyone dressed in their red, white and blue. Everyone brings their favorite BBQ food, we fix hot dogs, etc. This will be a great addition and the kids (and adults) will love it. Please send me the printables. Thank you for not making us go to facebook, not my thing.Thanks, Kris
